"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence

[carbomcoco]

they did the research in the first place because they believed you and wanted to tell people about it. they are not our enemies.

[aphony-cree]

people always go "Instead of spending all that time on a study they could have just listened to us when we said these thing happen"

they did listen, that's how studies work, they asked people about their experiences and put all the data together in a nice package that can be cited

Too fucking bad

I have a lot of feelings about April Fools turning 10 this year but I'll try to keep it concise. Above all, thank you for listening all these years, there's really no way to adequately express how grateful I am. I really try to be a person who is even halfway worthy of such a gift. I'm grateful too that so many people have felt understood listening to the bad ugly time I had. I've had more ugly times since then but on the whole I have experienced more beauty and love than I thought possible for myself when I made this. If I could speak directly to anyone who found April Fools during a hard time, I would want them to know that beauty and love is an inevitably in their future too. Life is long. Let's keep doing our best! ❤️🎂🎈

This is tangential to our top diva here but usernames on iNaturalist are such a delight. It's like 20% normal internet usernames, 40% academics using some derivation of their real name, and 40% sedgequeens.

I upload something aquatic and get an ID from a username like crabgrabbing. Bracketfunguy stops by my mushroom. Annelida19 kindly comments to explain why the computer model sucks at earthworms, with citations. Gallussssss goes through every Northeast region bird I have. I love all of them and their pride in their niche knowledge. Every single time it feels like this:

I hope Eragon gets a country accent in the show but know he won’t

unpopular inheritance opinion. the inheritance cycle would be so much better as 4 movies. we do not need to cram all of these pages into eight 40-minute episodes like pjo failed to do. we also would need an actual budget maybe!? also the urgals and maybe most shots with saphira should be jim henson puppets/practical effects. I do not want sloppy cgi saphira she has to be so beautiful and real-looking like 15% of the budget should be allocated just to her

[fertbutt]

with talks of eragon on disneyplus id like to reiterate my affection for feathered dragon designs and my disdain for the typical cyan blue scaled saphira that paolini has been pushing in official merchandise more recently

New leaks of a pre-release developer build of Fallout New Vegas confirm that Arcade Gannon was meant to lay eggs before this feature was cut due to console limitations

[fallout-lou-begas]

According to script notes that are absent from the release version of the game, Josh Sawyer originally envisioned Arcade's personal quest as needing to help him find an appropriate place on the waterside of Lake Mead to lay his eggs, which deleted models imply was to resemble fish eggs or frogspawn. "We really wanted players to relate to Arcade and understand him as he struggles to keep up with the courier, his heaving body swollen with unlaid eggs," Sawyer told Kotaku, "but time constraints and console limitations pushed us toward designing a different kind of quest, where we thought it would be cool if he triumphantly donned the in-game local equivalent of an antique SS uniform, instead."
